Agetha is busy leading a construction team to build the newest section of the colony. When disaster strikes and the biomass develops strange new features, she is thrust together with a new friend: Beth.

As their relationship develops, she soon learns Beth holds secrets of her own. Why is she stuck in a dead end job, anyway?

But their relationship might be cut short, in the face of a looming disaster from the biomass that could erase years of construction and set the colony back to its beginning.

Find out what happens in this short story of The Biomass Conflux, set between Of Mycelium and Men and To a Fungus Unknown!
